    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) Transmission problems! Please help!

    I guess not! The guy where I am from did a phominal job very happy with my transmission! But I didn't expect bad work from a fellow cummins enthusiast! He owns a 2006 dully 4x4 and built my trans just like his!

    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) Transmission problems! Please help!

    Well lets just say ATS trannys are not all they are cracked up to be! My was shot! All the parts in th transmission looked like half ton parts not to mention a 4 roller planetary gear! It's all back to tether running and a shift kit was installed on the new transmission! The ATS transmission had no shift kit! And...

    More power!

    Hello all I have a 93 engine in my 97 ram. I don't nearly have the power that I want. I have done some reading and I turned the diaphram in the pump from my 12 to my 3 o'clock and when I start it up and hit the throttle I get white smoke like it is too lean. Yeas I did go cw and not ccw. Any...

    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) Transmission problems! Please help!

    I might have got it hot. Not sure but they won't stand behind it. My warranty was 5 years 150000 miles. Yep and there was only 25000 miles on the transmission. I am not happy about it. My transmission guy is pulling the transmission out Monday and going to pull it apart. Hopefully I will have it back...

    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) Transmission problems! Please help!

    Well took the truck to the transmission shop and the foward drive clutches are burnt. Great just what I wanted! Oh and I missed my warranty on the transmission by 4 months. This down right sucks!

    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) Transmission problems! Please help!

    Sounds good guys. I talked to ATS today and they told me that either a band has broke or the "servo" for the pump has failed. I am going to run a pressure test tomorrow. It seems like maybe I have lost the pressure in the transmission. Does anybody know what the pressure rating should be? Seems...

    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) Transmission problems! Please help!

    I have a 97 with an ATS transmission in it. This morning on my way to work the truck shifted out of over drive and would not shift back in to it. This happened after I hit a series of pot holes. When I went to turn into the driveway for work the truck would not move at all. So I shifted to...

    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) Will the real oil presure number please stand up.

    You should have put a manual Oil Pressure gauge on it. My dads 98 12 valve kept "losing" pressure, or so it said on the gauge. He put the manual gauge on it and lo and behold he had about 45 at an Idle and about 60 at highway speeds. That might have saved you $700 dollars unless you were annoyed...

    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) Temp Gauge acting funny

    Haha I agree with that, No egr no problem and I did replace the tstat and no change. I was out getting firewood the other day and got stuck in about 3 feet of snow on the side of the road. I had to get on her pretty hard to get her out and when she finally came out, the truck wouldn't heat up...

    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) Temp Gauge acting funny

    So I have replaced two freeze plugs and fixed a head gasket leak in my 97 with the 93 engine. I refilled the coolant system with Heavy duty precharged antifreeze. Now the temp gauge is hunting for temp. When I say hunting it is swinging. I know it is not the head gasket, this happened to the...

    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) Transmission Cable?

    I am pretty sure I don't have a white locking device on mine. And I just swapped the engine and put a 93 VE pumped engine in it. But I will look. Thanks

    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) Transmission Cable?

    Thanks a bunch I will try to adjust this today after work.

    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) Transmission Cable?

    The Cable that runs from the injection pump to the Transmission I have heard is supposed to be adjusted right? I wasn't aware that these needed adjusting. Is there a way to adjust this and if there is how do I do it? Thanks:confused:

    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) New engine, questions?

    Well an update to the truck rebuild. The engine is in and running great! But I didn't expect any difference with a Cummins that has 100,000 miles on it. I did get a pin hole in a freeze plug but used one out of my old block and it does not seem to be leaking coolant anymore. There is a little...
